M26. I feel old as shit and it's only gonna get worse. A lot of it is your attitude and environment, something i'm struggling with rn.
You can still be young in your 60ies if you have wonderful people surrounding you.
EndeavourOS is arch based with less hassle. Its more than good enough for most people. don't get trapped by minimal install bs and other non-consequential opinionative approaches to software.
Select btrfs as your file system and use timeshift. If you fuck up or if your updates fuck something up. There are other ways of doing rollbacks and this is just what I became familiar with. I've used it two times in the past year, its worth it.
Bookmark the archwiki, 99% of the time the answer to the questions of 'how to' and 'can i' are in there
There are multiple DE's. Pick what works best for you before you toss that bootable USB installer. You of course can switch later down the line, but experimenting now will save you config troubleshooting later, just stick to what feels/looks best. Look around on the web to see what appeals to your workflow. There are others like Cosmic and Wayland that are not included in the arch gui installer, in which case, follow the install procedures for the DE you want and remove the old ones to avoid config overlap.
Add Steamtinkerlaunch to your steam proton list with protonup‐qt
Then, select it under the force compatibility menu.
From there, just click the run vortex mod manager button.
You can also run steamtinkerlaunch standalone, which is what I did for cyberpunk2077, but I feel like I did more manual file moving than I had to.
Wrong place, maybe, but Kontakt refuses to work for me for mail. I added the proton bridge config, but there are no folders in the mail view. The standalone Kmail does work. If anyone has troubleshooting tips. Maybe it's some flatpack vs native thing, idk.
